QuoProQuid posted:I really like Devo as a character but I sometimes I do wonder how self-aware Travis is about his own character and how misdirected and impotent his rage is Re: mystery I'm also really enjoying that. The Hominine spy communication device (wisp?) may be a red herring, but her getting too close to discovering something about Hominine, with the message she left, does seem plausible. Also it seemed like Clint and/or Zoox totally missed what the blink shark was saying, lol. It was definitely talking about the terrifying bleached brinar they've encountered before. I wonder what he's going to say to Amber.

Just want to say again how nice it is for them to take TAZ back to a weekly format. It's nice to just be able to have an episode proverbially lying around when I'm ready for it. Though part of that is due to the removal of my commute and so forth.

Lmao the bonus episode of Wonderful has Griffin talking poo poo on people who armchair therapize his relationship with his brothers based on what happens in podcasts/videos, it’s great

I can't tell if I love Devo being a dork rear end baby trying to intimidate people and failing absolutely miserably and then sulking or if I hate it.

Everyone knows they're at a point where they only communicate when doing McElroy brothers content.

they're not even brothers. justin and griffin met in the games journalism industry. travis is a cincinnati theater actor who only got the job after he revealed he had dirt on them. clint is an actor they hired to play their dad. follow the money.

I was on the fence about watching that movie but never did, mostly because the runtime seemed WAY too long for the premise to hold up

Don’t Look Up is Ready Player One for the Trump administration and (inadvertently) the Covid years. Anyone watching it has “got it” before the movie starts and then it proceeds to elbow you in the ribs and say “Get it?“ while waggling its eyebrows for about 3 drat hours. It’s beyond farce and parody, but not in the opposite direction than that is usually used. Is it a good movie? Maybe? It sure made me feel some stuff, mostly just tired, so it could be wildly successful depending on your metric.

It is pretty tiresome in a lot of places I just remember being annoyed because it seemed like a lot of more mainstream libs hated it because it was so pessimistic

If Devo doesn't pay off his loan soon, I hope Griffin has him get his knees broken by worm thugs.

I get they want to raise money, but I gave up on those episodes a while ago and skip them entirely. It was tolerable when it was a pitch here and there, but it's taken over the whole loving thing, no thanks This is the only podcast I listen to on the network; have other show's drive episodes become this unlistenable or is this one the most egregious because it's the biggest and most popular? Guessing it's the latter

The MaxFun stuff does feel way more intense this year. I wonder if its because they missed their target last year and don't seem in line to hit it again this year.

I mean it's incredibly easy for someone to just download and re-upload the mp3s anywhere. It's not actually there for security purposes--just to give 1 extra step to accessing it to encourage people to join. anyways to add a dissenting voice I like the new stuff that happens during the drive and just skip through things when it gets boring

I think I became inured over decades of public radio and TV pledge drives. and the drive sometimes leads to additional comedy.

According to last year's MBMBAM, Travis added DRM so pirated stream's jokes are not funny. So if you don't find Travis funny... stop pirating your podcasts!
